Wild Gambler and its Lock and Spin button
Most slots have one Spin button. Wild Gambler has two, and the second one charges more to keep your wilds where they landed.
Wild Gambler looks like a normal safari slot at first: bamboo frame, acacia trees, a savannah sunset and animals on the reels. The difference is at the bottom right, where a second big button sits next to Spin. It reads Lock & Spin, and the whole game is built around it.
What Lock and Spin means
The help screen that opens the game explains it in five lines. "Lock & Spin. Spin with wilds locked in place for an increased chance to win. Bet varies with wilds in view. Play your way. Click on symbols to add or remove wilds." In practice, when wilds land, you can pay to keep them and spin the rest. The more wilds you keep, the more that spin costs. That's why there are two Stake boxes on the panel, one for a normal spin and one for Lock & Spin. In our screenshots, with no wilds in view, both show RM0.20.
A Lock & Spin isn't a free second chance. You're paying extra for better odds on one spin, and the game sets that price. It's a gamble on top of a gamble. There's also a small "Auto-lock ON" switch in the corner, which is worth turning off if you'd rather decide each time.
Reels and symbols
It's a 5x3 grid with 20 numbered lines. The card symbols are dressed in animal print: a leopard-spotted K, a tiger-striped A, a zebra-striped 10. The animals are a leopard, a zebra, a rhino and a pink flamingo, drawn in a comic style. The old page said lions are the wilds and that a free spin round of 8 spins keeps locked wilds in place. Our screenshots show neither, so that stays unconfirmed.
Controls
Along the bottom: Win and Total Win, a line stake box (RM0.01), the two Stake boxes, a Paytable button shaped like a buffalo skull, Auto Plays on a log, then Spin and Lock & Spin. It's a playful panel, but read it carefully before each Lock & Spin.
For another animal slot in the same lobby, see White King or Wild Spirit. The NTC33 page lists all its games, and the NTC33 overview covers the app. Should you want to play, you can get a game ID via the partner page.

Questions people ask
What does Lock and Spin do in Wild Gambler?
It spins again with the wilds on screen held in place. The stake for that spin changes with how many wilds you keep, and you can click symbols to add or remove wilds from the lock.
Is Lock and Spin a better deal than a normal spin?
It gives a better chance of a win on that spin, but you pay a higher stake for it. The game prices it that way on purpose, so it isn't free value.
How many lines does Wild Gambler have?
The screens show line markers up to 20 and a stake of RM0.20 at RM0.01 a line. The old page said 30, which doesn't match.
